Frost Town was located in a bend on the south bank of Buffalo Bayou approximately ½ mile downriver from the present site of downtown Houston.

Frost built a house and blacksmith shop on the property, but died shortly after of cholera. His brother, Samuel M. Frost subdivided the 15 acres into eight blocks of 12 lots each, and began to sell lots on July 4, 1838.
